One tin soldier

F               C          Dm
Listen children to a story that was 
written long ago
Bb              F             
'Bout a kingdom on a mountain and 
Gm7
the valley folk below
F               C              
On the mountain was a treasure 
Dm
buried deep beneath a stone
Bb             F                  
And the valley people swore they'd
 Gm7                     F   Bb    F
 have it for their very own

CORUS:
                       Am         
Go ahead and hate your neighbour, 
Bb                        F
go ahead and cheat a friend
                     Am      Bb   
Do it in the name of heaven, 
               F
justify it in the end
                            Am     
There won't be any trumpets blowin,
 Bb                   F
 come the judgement day
Continues after the ad
                      Bb         
On the bloody morning after......
        Bb                   F    
One tin soldier rides away.
    Bb



So the people of the valley sent a 
message up the hill
Asking for the buried treasure tons 
of gold for which they'd kill
Came an answer from the kingdom 
"With our brothers we wil share
All the secrets of our mountain, all
 the riches buried there."
CHORUS
Now the valley cried with anger, 
mount your horses, draw your sword
and they killed the mountain people 
so the won their just reward
Now they stood beside the treasure 
on the mountain, dark and red
turned the stone and looked beneath 
it, "Peace on Earth" was all it 
said.
CHORUS
